How many people do you have on your ignore list?

[JMSCARD]

I have a large web presence of both rc and formal work .. often those lines blur ..
There's just one name, on just one ignore list , and he plagues this place infrequently..
After declaring something I posted was infinitesimally incorrect, he dedicated weeks to 5+ daily posts bickering about semantics for this yet to be defined error ... ( of his judgement ? )
I grew weary of swatting gnats, so blocked his irritating ass .
Adieu and good riddance...

Lol, I think I know of whom your talking about, his name started with a X if we're talking about the same user... lol, funny because when I went back and looked at my list... I must have put him on awhile ago too, he was my only one! Haha.

err.. xf* ?.. he didnt reach the same level of frenetic determination to prove himself a troll ... as k* LOL.
All good now, the ether has cleared .
ergo .. if you dont have the 'correct' answer, dont say my detail is wrong.. sheeshhhh .

OK Doc, you asked for it.......for the record,
I walked away from that thread, and have not been back on it since, so lets review the facts; you spouted misinformation, and I did give you the "correct answer" right out of the gate, your ego was just too big to acknowledge that you were mistaken. You stated an example of a 6' power cord carrying 22.7 amps @220v to a hypothetical toaster, and you stated that if you put "that same 22.7 amps" through that cord at 25V DC it would heat up and melt. This went against everything I thought I knew from studying and working with electricity for over 20 yrs, but because of your background I asked for your logic behind the statement hoping to learn something new. You proceeded to give hints to irrelevant electrical phenomenon ("Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!"), which basically showed you had no sound logic behind the statement, it was pure MISINFORMATION, on a thread that is there to inform people. Despite all the facts, documented sources, personal experience, identical online discussion, and AMPACITY CHARTS I linked, coupled with the fact that you actually had to ask me what the term "ampacity" meant, which was the basis of the entire discussion, you continued to deny it yet produced no valid theory to support your false claim. I then bowed out of the debate, knowing that it was likely anybody that was following now recognized the original statement(Oh I'm sorry, "detail") was bogus.

Clearly I did give you the CORRECT ANSWERS, right out of the gate, including (but not limited to) the fact that-
*DC amps and household RMS AC amps produce the same amount of heat
*The ampacity of a wire has nothing to do with the voltage type or magnitude of voltage (save for extreme cases far outside of this discussion)
*The only relevance in this case of the length of wire was voltage drop

And because you still can't accept it, I just made this little video for you, of a 7', 14gauge appliance cord rated at 18 amps/300v AC, carrying 23 amps @23-24v DC for over a half an hour and barely getting warm, proving beyond any reasonable doubt IMO, that you were full of it.
You blocked me because I am the one person here who threatened your ego and credibility in the world of electrical theory and it's practical application. Now Doc, I guess you can't even see this right now from way up there on your pedestal, but maybe somebody will be kind enough to forward it to you.

You know what's irritating?
Humongous egos. Like yours bro.
You're so enamoured by your own magnificence and intelligence.
Ever consider you're wrong?

Dude, that charger rocks !
great video by the way

And so it is what it is. Cool video. Now tell us your trick? Lol, just kidding Kevin.

i just read this thread. Ignore List? ya'll meant snore list. HA!
tlandauer said it best "I try to avoid confrontations here since for me personally this is a place to relax and enjoy."
most of you that posted here i've learned a lot over the years and still find new things to try, i know when someone is ignoring or annoying me.
cause of most of ya's i do not think i'll never stop building boats, I can't wait to do a Cocktail Racer stumbled on those looking for scale boat parts, somethn' new to me.

[T.S.Davis]

This made me check again. I have 5 on there. 4 haven't posted in years.

You don't have to read posts from guys that are perpetually argumentative or annoying. Me too. By all meams put me in yer ignore list if im super annoying. Enjoy this site on your own terms.

Works for Bookface too. Only two for me on there.

[tlandauer]

This forum in comparison with the RCGroup Forum is smaller and friendlier. It's also a dedicated forum. I have put quite a few people onn my list over there not because of arguments but from other people's complaints that those people are not reliable sellers or buyers. Sometimes I buy items there and l don't want a potential deal go sour.

I have been blessed by having you boatheads around and have never had a problem! You are a great bunch of nuts that have been willing to share your thoughts and advice with almost anyone! You have made this hobby and passion very enjoyable for those learning! As in real life there are those who just don't get it! I thank you all! But I also think everyone who knows Ray should still keep him on that list ! LOL JK
